Writing Assessment Items
In your table group, choose a Performance Expectation that might be somewhat challenging for students to reach.
Write an assessment item for this Expectation.
Does your item focus mainly on conceptual understanding, procedural fluency, or processes?

Debriefing Items
How did you begin to develop your item?
What did you think about first?
What possibilities did you reject? Why?
How confident are you that your item aligns well with the Expectation you chose?

Vocabulary
1. Your table will be assigned 1 or 2 Core Content areas.
2. Individually or with your neighbor, identify vocabulary that is crucial to the understanding of the mathematics of your assigned areas.
3. At your table, discuss those vocabulary lists. Then choose the four most critical vocabulary words for each of your assigned areas. Be ready to defend your choices.

Debriefing Vocabulary
Which words were chosen most often?
Are these words clearly defined in your curriculum materials?
How will you build vocabulary instruction into your teaching?

Course Goals
1. As a table group, write the 2 or 3 most important goals for Algebra 2.
2. Use language that is “parent friendly.”
3. Choose one goal and find the Performance Expectations in the Grades 6-8 standards that are “prerequisite” for this goal.

Self Assessment
The Performance Expectations for Algebra 2 are listed on the handout provided. For each Expectation make two ratings:
Personal preparation:
5 = I know more than enough mathematics to teach this well.
1 = I need to learn more mathematics in order to teach this well.
Availability of curriculum materials:
5 = My curriculum materials provide outstanding instruction for this.
1 = My curriculum materials do not address this at all.10

Checking Our Readiness
For each of the two ratings:
How many Expectations were rated “5”?
How many Expectations were rated “1”?

Next Steps
What do you and your colleagues need to do in your building to be ready to implement the 9-12 Mathematics Standards in general and Algebra 2 in particular?
What additional professional development would make this process easier?
